Seems it came without a warning
Now heartaches knocking at your door
And this cold familiar stranger
Makes himself at home once more
So you climb onto that midnight train
And buy a one-way ticket
From your sorrow and pain
There's just no escape
When you run out of faith
And hope has locked that door
You say love is a lair
A thief in the house of my dreams
Too many promises, too much pride
Now you carry your anger
Like a thorn in your side
And there's...
No rest for the wounded heart
You build your castles
Then you tear them apart
Better run for cover
The sky's turnin' dark
There's no rest, no rest
For the wounded heart
Seems those city lights they blind you
In your search for love's embrace
And ain't it funny how it finds you
How you turn and walk way
You say love is a lair
A thief in the house of my dreams
There's just too many memories, too much pain
Now love lies naked in the pouring rain
And there's...
No rest for the wounded heart
You build your castles
Then you tear them apart
Better run for cover
The sky's turnin' dark
There's no rest, no rest
For the wounded heart
Now baby I know just how hopeless it seems
But it's never too late to try
'Cause you might end up at the end of your life
Find out that you've been living a lie
Now the summer's but a memory
As the wind blows cold and strong
And it's a God forsaken season
That last your whole life long
And there's...
No rest for the wounded heart
You build your castles
Then you tear them apart
Better run for cover
The sky's turnin' dark
There's no rest, no rest
For the wounded heart
No rest for the wounded heart
You build your castles
Then you tear them apart
Better run for cover
The sky's turnin' dark
There's no rest, no rest
For the wounded heart
No rest for the wounded heart
You build your castles
Then you tear them apart
Better run for cover
The sky's turnin' dark
There's no rest, no rest
For the wounded heart
No rest for the wounded heart
You build your castles
Then you tear them apart
Better run for cover
The sky's turnin' dark
There's no rest, no rest
For the wounded heart
